Y 96-356 a. General Deacri to ion. The City requests a sone change for a Parcel containing approximately 10.5 acres from Government and Institutional Service and Industry and Service District to Shopping and Personal Service District located on the south west side of Union Street between the City's water Pool area and Godfrey Boulevard. b. Land Use and Zonina Policy. The proposed Shopping and Personal Service zoning is consistent with the City's Land Use Policy for this section of the Union Street corridor which is -commercial" on both sides. The implementing zoning policy was Shopping and Personal Service District zoning on the northeast side and Airport Development zoning on the southwest side of Union Street (which included a range of commercial uses as well as traditional Airport uses). C. Urban Services. The site is within the Primary Service Area and has a complete range of urban services available to it. d. Existing conditions. The site itself is vacant with the exception of a large propane tank on the southerly corner (which may be removed). The predominant use on the Union Street frontage through this area is commercial. There are a number of retail and service establishments on the opposite aide of Union Street from Griffin Road all the way in -town to Westland Avenue. There are commercial uses on the Union Street frontage on the southwest side of Union Street through this area, awell a e number of uses in the GC 6 S zone beyond GodfreyBoulevard and there is agas station In - town of the site, which lies between the City's Motor Pool area and Union Street. Part of the site has recently been cleared of older structures that the City bad inherited from the Air Force, while most of it has been vacant and unused for a number of years. There is a large drainage ditch and retention pond area which separates this parcel from the met of the Industry and Service area of the Airport (presently undeveloped) with Godfrey Boulevard frontage. Finally, Maine Avenue forms a good portion of the southerly most boundary of the parcel. What we have is a piece of land which is somewhat isolated from the rest of the Airport by the drainage ditch, Maine Avenue and the City's Public Works and Motor Pool area. e. Decision Criteria. The basic test of any zone change request is whether or not it is consistent with the City's Cmprehensive Plan. As noted above, the commercial use of this site is consistent with the City's Land Use Policy for this area and also -consistent with existing and proposed zoning in this area. The commercial use of this property will fit in with the existing development of Colon Street through this area as well. f. Recommendation. Since the proposed zone change is consistent with the City's development Policies for this area, Staff would recommend that the Planning Board recommend this proposed change to the City Council.
